THANK YOU...THANK YOU....THANK YOU....so much for this collection. I've been a fan of old time radio for the longest time and heard random episodes on another anthology series called 'The Horror' and had to search out other episodes and found them here. I absolutely love this series. My question, however, is this the complete series bc i feel like im missing other ones i could be mistaken though but thank you again for all the work put into uploading these

is the scariest radio program one night driving across the Dakotas at 1:30am I was listening to an episode & had to turn it off. Very well done.

Dan: Martha, you know what's up there to the north?

Martha: screams

Subject: Small Warning - Episodes contain much random Profanity

I have listened to nearly all of the episodes of this show. Very good stuff, except for the fact that MANY contain random profanity and curse words spoken by the characters. And, when I say "profanity" and "curse words", please think beyond common swear words like "Hell" or "Damn". I assume the writers were trying for "realism". If that was the goal, it did not really work, because the voice actors generally seemed totally uncomfortable shouting or muttering them, so those nasty words end up sounding forced and distracting from the plot. If profanity bothers you, this is definitely not the show for you. Just my two cents.

Subject: Quality writing...

Quality writing. acing and production with this show. Thanks for including them and for the hard work it took to do so.

Reviewer: Vivia - - April 27, 2014
Subject: Great stuff, thanks!

Please ignore the whining and complaining on this page! They must not realize that this hard work is mostly done by volunteers, or they are creeps, or both. May I suggest that those who whine that ' someone' needs to re-do the upload, re-master the audio, etc: learn how and step up to the plate themselves? That's what the original posters did! It takes a lot of nerve to demand that someone who did you a favor and gave you a gift, a perfect stranger, DO IT OVER AGAIN FOR YOUR CONVENIENCE. Just go away if that is your attitude. Please.

Subject: Occult Tid Bids woven Through These Stories. By;- Mike j Hughes

As a trained observer , and listening , I pick up all kind's of occult ''hints' 'as to the working of elementary magic.

Thanks to all for the up- loads we have now before us, to dive into the past during wartime crisis ,and to study the ''mindset' 'ideologies , and to be confronting many of the the most Deeply evil men that had not made their appearance in our world for over 95.000 years -since the height and ending,....... the Doom and submergence of the last of the Atlantean Landmass Was violently Shattered by various pacts made between low level Elementals along with their ghoulish activities , and the deep and powerful way in which to destroy the minds of all humanity

Thank God we are now past the terrors' of that time , and that a new world of peace will emerge from within the heart of men, and woman of goodwill Through out the world.
This is , in many cases a war influenced by the occult esoterica,- between the . ''Forces of Light '',-and Those of the ''Involutionary Path'' where their job is to uphold the Matter aspect within the world of ''forms''.

Subject: file titling

I love this old time radio!! what I dont like is having to rename almost every file in order to actually see the title of the episodes in my dvd or cd player
putting the title 1st would fix that , the actual title of the episode that is
to be frank I could care less to see xxxxxx for the date, what a waste of space!
yes I registered jus to say that as I have already collected almost 300gb of OTR from here
kom
so with that said the highest I am ever going to give in stars is 3 simply because of the renaming issue being such a irritant

Subject: A Quality OTR

This program is very well-written and the suspense always holds my interest. Unfortunately, some episodes are CBT's, which means they sound like Charlie Brown's Teacher when she talks down to him in class, very muffled audio, ha! I wish someone would re-master these great OTR's, I'm sure it can be done, and then we could enjoy them better.

Subject: The best are very good.

These vary quite a bit in quality. There's a site online that reviews them that you might want to search for.

Subject: Great series ~ Wrong dates, titles, episode numbers

Love the Nightfall series and appreciate being able to listen to them again after so many years.

However, it's a shame that the files posted here were not given even a basic cursory verification before being uploaded. As it is, most titles, dates and episode numbers don't sync with the mp3 of the show. I have checked 12 episodes so far and 10 have the wrong information. With so many episode logs available, in my opinion it's inexcusable to post files with such blatant and easily corrected errors.

Subject: A blast from my past!

My local NPR affiliate used to carry this show in the early '80s. I used to flip over and listen to it right after CBS Radio Mystery Theatre. These tales are quite well crafted with excellent production values and some will absolutely spook you out!

Reviewer: nighthouse66 - - February 4, 2012
Subject: the only bad thing i can say about this is....

....is that it ruins you really, for stuff like "inner sanctum". this is actually sometimes FRIGHTENING. good, creepy stuff. i wish they had made loads more. til then i will just listen to these over and over and over.

Subject: dark lonely roads....

Some are little cheesy but don't listen to these stories while driving on a dark lonely road. They'll creep you out! Good stuff.

Reviewer: Dee_Grooovy - - January 7, 2011
Subject: CREEPY!!!

Holy wow, who knew Canadians could be so scary?

Seriously, though - this is a very well done horror series from the early 80s. Really creepy stuff!

Reviewer: John_Feaster - - January 4, 2011
Subject: THANK YOU, CANADA!!!

Oh, I REMEMBER THESE! When I was a kid I lived in Detroit and we used to pick these up some nights. Years later, I found some scattered episodes on cassette (Durkin-Hayes) and once again felt the icey claws of Canada at my spine. This was a GREAT series...even if the incredibly cheesy synth-music sometimes inspires a chuckle instead of a chill. Download several episodes and see what YOU think. ;>)
